@RutgersAltRoute A6 One thing I can do is give students warnings and then subsequently have conversations with them that allow them to take ownership of their actions.

[Ms. Khosla @KhoslaMs]

@RutgersAltRoute A5: Instead of reprimanding students for instances in class, instead ask them if they believe their actions were good or bad. It lets them take accountability and work towards a solution together. #SpED #ALRtEd

[Ms. Khosla @KhoslaMs]

@RutgersAltRoute A4 One way I currently help students with ADHD is by allowing them to move as they may need. So, for example, if they become fidgety, they may fill go grab a drink of water or go to the bathroom. This way they are releasing their energy while also not disrupting class. #SPed

[Ms. Khosla @KhoslaMs]

@RutgersAltRoute A3 We can do this by understanding their needs and creating a system for these students to take a few minutes to themselves if needed. This can look like a hand signal or a “code word” that allows students to maybe take a 2 minute lap or a 2 minute breather. #SpED #RUAltRoute

[Ms. Khosla @KhoslaMs]

@RutgersAltRoute A2 You can empower your students by giving them an outlet to write their concerns. For example, you can initiate a check-in or even ask them to write Post-It’s when they need help.

[Ms. Khosla @KhoslaMs]

@RutgersAltRoute A1 I believe the biggest challenge is just instilling confidence in students with learning disabilities. Often times they feel discouraged due to past experiences, so it is important to let them know that they CAN do the work and they are ABLE to. #SpED

[Ms. Khosla @KhoslaMs]

@RutgersAltRoute A7: Instead is always pursuing a traditional assessment, I may opt for a project-based performance assessment.

[Ms. Khosla @KhoslaMs]

@RutgersAltRoute A6: Using growth language is extremely important! For example “Ok, so you did not do as well as you wanted to. Let’s look at this as an opportunity to learn!”

[Ms. Khosla @KhoslaMs]

@RutgersAltRoute A5: Student reflection is key! Asking them what they did today that they felt was difficult and how they overcame this can help a student feel inspired to keep working hard!

[Ms. Khosla @KhoslaMs]

@RutgersAltRoute A4: Currently, I always push students towards the right answer whenever they raise their hand. I never want them to give up just because the gave the wrong answer! I want them to feel that win when they realize they do actually know the answer.

[Ms. Khosla @KhoslaMs]

@mrsgriffunk @RutgersAltRoute Love this!

[Ms. Khosla @KhoslaMs]

@RutgersAltRoute A2: Teachers can promote a safe space where no question is a stupid question! Teachers can also make sure that all voices are heard in their CR.

[Ms. Khosla @KhoslaMs]

@RutgersAltRoute A1: I believe that mindset actually player the biggest role in student learning and development. Without the belief that you can become “smarter”, there is no motivation to learn.

[Ms. Khosla @KhoslaMs]

I’ve wanted to try becoming a archaeologist and leading kids through a fake archaeological dig! I’m thinking I’ll do it next time. #KidsDeserveIt

[Ms. Khosla @KhoslaMs]

@RutgersAltRoute A3: "Zero tolerance" has often not worked because it doesn't give students a chance to change their actions and also results in disproportionate consequences on youth of color. Children need a chance to change their actions and learn from mistakes. #StandUpToBullying #AltRtEd
